and heres something ive sacrificed my eyes for the past nights
too bad i can't go to school now because of how late it is :|

The plate armor has a nice texture but also looks sorta... die-cast. There needs to be more reflection from the ground and sky in certain parts to make it seem more natural. Also it looks like you've used straight black for the shadows which makes it seem charred.
Here's a refhttp://www.conceptart.org/forums/att...1&d=1313846492
Color of the sky bounces off armor facing up, dirt, grass etc bounces off armor facing down

I kinda wish that the art teacher that I had used the cut throat approach.
She was much too nice. Sometimes you just have to give some one a swift kick in the rear to help them improve.
Maybe I'll have more "luck" in college.

Well, I have very cut throat prof for a digital sculpturing class I took for a semester.
Being the first and only 'real' art class I have taken so far,
I honestly learnt more from him than anything.
He can go on for hours on how I can improve my work, which I think is golden.
I've taken some summer classes, but there was no feedback at all, just pass or fail.

The problem is that you're not really saying anything that could be useful to me. I still thank you for pointing out my mistake but just going with only a "hurr durr go back to study anatomy" comment isn't helpful to me at all.

Also yeah, I try to draw differents kind of shapes for my characters, though that doesn't mean I should draw them with innacurate anatomy

I'm not sure I really like RA much these days, its strayed away from humour and into vague seriousness but I don't feel it has much substance to it. Its pretty, but there isn't much else to it than that.

Just a sorda test run to get the hang of animation, had a look at a few spritesheets and such to get an idea as to how it all works. Only four frames.
Proportions and movement is probably way off, but this is my first time doing anything of the sort.
(The movement of the hair/fire is horrid, but I want to add more frames to the base before I worry about making that look nice)

It looks really unnatural. I'm not an expert on this kind of thing, but it looks one leg is always in front and one is always behind like a weird gallop. The whole thing could do with being smoother aswell, especially the arms.

Its cause its only 4 frames for both of those really. You don't see the legs pass over each other so it does look weird, yes. Anyway the point of this was to just get the hang of animation in general, I've never gone anywhere near this kind of stuff before and this is about as amateur as it gets.

Final version of my painting, sorry for potential spam. Pretty happy with this overall despite some errors, going to try and render a less 'corky' face next time and stay away from hair for the foreseeable future Hopefully goes down well as I'm going to print it for my girlfriend who recently dip dyed her hair pink :) (btw is the background too cheesy? I might not include it afterall :p)

I'm having a lot of trouble finding what posters to print for concerts.

Everyone seems to have a different "favorite" piece of mine, but I only want to print the best ones. I'm gona dither them when I know which ones I want, so they will still be shaded, just less colorful.
I guess I want the best, most contrasting, and most interesting/intricate pieces to print.

Anyway,
would you buy any of these as posters or prints? which ones your favorite? (Idk if the mickey mouse one is copyright infringing though....)

are you guys serious? Sometimes when i need a new piece of paper i try to press ctrl-a backspace to delete whats on my sheet of paper. It's only after a good 20 minutes that I realize that it is in fact, real life.
